I think that today's technology is a double edged sword--it can detect problems but scares so many women to death and robs the joy from their pregnancies. Frankly, I've had two friends (at separate times) who were told their babies were likely to have Down syndrome, and both delivered normal infants. Another was told about a genetic problem that did not materialize--I forget what it specifically was. The chances of a baby being healthy are greater than its not being.
